I'm looking at an Al Chione picture (1980 Sundance Calendar - September) taken in October 1968 which shows 473 with no fake stack, headed Eastbound, light, at Carracas.

I know 473 had it's fake stack on the last Westbound train two months later.

Wade is definitely correct, #473 made the trip to Alamosa in October with no fake stack. No telling how it got to Alamosa, it for sure wasn't on the engine.
